OLT, GPON & Access

OLT, GPON and access node equipment

Manufacturers: Alcatel-Lucent, Emerson / Vertiv, Fiberhome, Huawei, ZTE, Zhone

Fibre access rollouts across Africa and the Gulf run predominantly on a handful of OLT platforms, and expansion is normally a service board added to an existing chassis rather than a new chassis. Getting that right means knowing the chassis generation, the free slots and the optical budget the board must deliver. This category covers Huawei SmartAX MA5600T and MA5800, ZTE ZXA10, Alcatel-Lucent ISAM and Fiberhome platforms. Port count and optical budget per board, and which chassis accepts it, are the fields that decide a purchase.
